Title: Need help with choosing parts for gaming PC. Post by: BartmaX on September 08, 2014, 04:47:12 PM Hi guyz,
In this week I'm going to build new gaming PC for me. I will buy: CPU: Intel Core i7 5960x CPU Water Cooling: ? Motherboard: Asus X99-Deluxe RAM: ? GPU: AMD R9 295x2 PSU: ? Case: ? Actually I have got: CPU: Intel Core i7 875k Motherboard: Intel DP55KG RAM: Kingston 8GB 1333MHz GPU: Sapphire 7950 Vapor-X PSU: Corsair 750w SSD: Intel 300GB for Windows HDD: 1TB for games HDD 2: 500GB for Ubuntu Case: Lian Li PC-60FW I think about: RAM: Corsair DDR4 4x 4GB 2800MHz CL16 Dominator Platinum 1.2V [OR] Corsair DDR4 4x 4GB 2800MHz CL16 Vengeance LPX Blue 1.2V PSU: 1000w OR 1200w be quiet! Case: hmm... what do you prefer? I need big tower, with place to CPU cooler radiator, and fan in front of case for GPU radiator. Case should have got free slots for DVD room and Asus ROG Front Base. CPU Water Cooling: I don't know, is Corsair H100i or H110 good? What do u think? Title: Re: Need help with choosing parts for gaming PC. Post by: BartmaX on September 08, 2014, 07:03:14 PM up

You could run your system on that alone, but I personally like to max everything out just to do it. Get a few more sticks if you wish.
For a PSU, get a Corsair AX1200. I have one and it's a great unit. Stay away from RM750s and RM850s as the RM series is know to have coil whine issues. Coil whine AFAIK is just cosmetic, but it does occur due to the coil physically vibrating. It could eventually cause component failure, but from my research, I haven't seen anyone say that it's actually killed their PSU. I have a Thermaltake Overseer. It's my favorite case so far. I have a Cooler Master 120mm Seidon, but I had to drill extra holes to make it's radiator fit on the top of the case. It's very easy to drill through the aluminum for that case mod, though, and it doesn't interfere with any of the existing holes. Title: Re: Need help with choosing parts for gaming PC.

X99-Deluxe or RAMPAGE V EXTREME X99?
